AI will never become a conscious being — Sentient founder
Artificial intelligence will have major social implications but will not evolve to the point of being a true silicate-based life form.
Artificial intelligence (AI) will never become a conscious being due to a lack of intention, which is endemic to human beings and other biological creatures, according to Sandeep Nailwal — co-founder of Polygon and the open-source AI company Sentient.
„I don’t see that AI will have any significant level of conscience,“ Nailwal told Cointelegraph in an interview, adding that he does not believe the doomsday scenario of AI becoming self-aware and taking over humanity is possible.
The executive was critical of the theory that consciousness emerges randomly due to complex chemical interactions or processes and said that while these processes can create complex cells, they cannot create consciousness.
